In what seems like the first bit of news from the jailbreak scene in quite a while, Chpwn announced today that an update for his popular Infiniboard tweak is now available in Cydia.

The utility, which allows you to add an unlimited amount of icons to each springboard page, now works with Sakurina’s Iconoclasm and Ryan Petrich’s OverBoard tweak…

For those unfamiliar with the two apps, Iconoclasm enables you to arrange icons on your device’s springboard in a number of free and premium layouts, and OverBoard is another springboard tweak that shows all of your home pages in a convenient overview. So needless to say, it’s nice that all 3 mods now play nicely together.

It’s also worth noting that Chwpn recently updated the entire Infini-app suite to support iOS 6. So for those of you that can jailbreak the firmware, all 3 tweaks are now compatible.

If you want to check out the new Infiniboard, you can find it in Cydia, in the BigBoos repo. The update is obviously free for previous owners, but it will cost new buyers $2.99.

Ecc’s point is still valid, and your notice is mute. Chpwn is in the inner circle of iOS hackers, on the iPhone Dev Team, likely stands for one or more of the exploits used in the current unreleased iOS6 jailbreak. And surly he must think its close to a release if he stopped looking for that LAST exploit and REWROTE the whole f*in infiniboard tweak instead.

And by last exploit I mean Planetbeing has said that the collective have decided that they want one unreleased exploit in reserve to be able to probe upcoming firmwares.

Surely they are closer to untethered jb now than they were few months ago. It is not really a surprise. The question is how long it is gonna take to the final release….another two months? If I remembered Chpwn updated his tweaks about a month ago..now he just added some bonus. My point is…dont get too excited because you still might wait long time for jb.

Just bought Infinitboard for $0.99. Is it on sale or the price has change?
Does not compatible with Barrel

Yes, but it is not released yet. They have a working jailbreak, which they are foolproofing right now, but they want at least one unreleased exploit in reserve to be able to probe upcoming firmwares before they release this Jailbreak.

So expect it to be released sooner or later after iOS 6.1 update is released.
